Kristina and Hans were married at their home church of Alpharetta First Presbyterian and then celebrated their union with an elegant reception at The Manor Golf and Country Club in Milton, GA.  I know I say this all of the time, but I must just have the sweetest couples as clients because Kristina and Hans are were just delightful!  I was greeted with a squeal when I arrived in Kristina’s getting ready room and the entire wedding day was full of laughs, sweet moments, and TONS of fun!  You’ll see from the pictures that this was an elegant affair with gorgeous tablescapes adorned with the prettiest flowers.  However, at this wedding, elegant did not mean stuffy!  Kristina, Hans and all of their guests knew how to party!  The dance floor was packed all night, the photobooth brought lots of laughter, and the candy bar topped off the night with a sugar rush.  Kristina and Hans it was a pleasure working with you and your amazing families!  Enjoy the images from your big day!

I asked the girls to come up with their own “silly” pose…they channeled their inner cheesy 80′s music video selves!

When I think of Ashley and Chris the first word that pops into my head is – PRECIOUS!  These too are so in love and even more importantly that love is deeply routed first in God.  I know without a doubt that their wedding day was surely precious in the eyes of the Lord.  Ashley and Chris were married at their home church, Greater Heights Baptist Church, in Cumming, GA and had an incredibly sweet reception at Chukkar Farms and Polo Club in Alpharetta.  Let me tell you what a fun place that was to shoot!  First…there is a gorgeous green barn with yellow accents…fun!  Then, there are all of the animals – pigs, chickens, horses, and even a farm cat.  My favorite pictures from the day were when a HUGE clydesdale horse came RUNNING towards us – seriously…so fun!  (Make sure you make it to the bottom of the post to see them!)  What else?  Ashley’s dress had pockets!  Her bridesmaid dresses were from Banana Republic – love this idea!  All in all the wedding was personal, sweet, and a joy to photograph!  Enjoy the images!

Seriously…love these two!  What troupers!  We got stuck in some BAD traffic and couldn’t make it to our originally planned location for this shoot.  So…what did we do?  Pull off on the side of the road!  Literally!  We shot these images in a neighborhood that had been cleared and not built on.  There were some weeds that had grown up that kind of made it look like a field and some gorgeous light…so we ran with it!  Pretty impressed with how they turned out!  Of course…Jess and Jason are the perfect models!  They understood how to ignore the camera and just be with each other.  As you can tell from the images below they both LOVE life and each other!  Enjoy!

First…just for fun…the “location” side of the road abandoned neighborhood…

and now…to the images!
